Mine is going from stock basically, to stage 3 with trunk mount cooling system. I will let Pullejo submit his mods himself.

Electric cutouts going on right off the Floored Fab Headers. They will have a in cabin one toggle switch that opens both valves. Basically when they are opened, you will be running open headers This will be opened on the dyno when the tuning starts on Pullejo's car to determine if there is any power gains there. I will get a clip up for you shortly.

Pullejo's custom mid section x pipe setup, as he just got the headers from FF. The cutouts are tig'd to the mid section.

-Eurocharged 180MM
-New Bosch pump
-QTP electronic cutouts immediately after the collectors
-Cats deleted (should have left them but didn't think about that until later...

All work being done by Greg & Jason over at Buckhead Imports.

Winning.

Cutouts are controlled by actuators built in to them. Jason and the guys at buckhead imports installed the switch on the inner wall of the storage box on the front of my drivers seat (open the box...flip the switch...wide open exhaust).

Sounds GREAT even when they're closed (no cats...x pipe where the secondaries were, then stock resonator and stock cans).

Here's a video (sorry it's ****ty) but you get the idea. Sounds SICK.

http://youtu.be/cg55-N3JeWs


Now...we noticed a slight wobble on the new 180 MM pulley after a run or two on the dyno. Not good - a lot of guys will still run with a minor wobble...but I won't. Just don't want to risk that. It may or may not have caused a leak on my front seal.

Jerry at Eurocharged is over-nighting me a new pulley (good dude for sure). When we pull that pulley, I'm having that seal replaced as well.

We'll resume tuning and dyno-ing next week. I'm off to San Fran on Sunday...back on Tuesday...and hopefully Wed. or so she should be beastly.

so you are running with no cats at all on the FF headers setup ? Need to move to a state that doesnt care about emissions.:-0 i;m debating between buying a set of FFheaders xpipe or EC long tubes from the group buy. Decisions decisions.

In VA have to pass emissions. So have to have at least a set of cats on the car.
